congratulations...the winner is teri who comments, The Rolfing sisters. My 5th grade home room and reading teachers. They are what teachers are supposed to be. Not the flash of the Hollywood movies teachers (Stand and Deliver, Dead Poets Society, etc) but a good solid love of their students and love of teaching. They are both gone now and I so regret I never told them thank you.

I'd like to thank my oldest daughter, who I count on way too much, is an awesome big sister to her siblings, who always smiles and never lets me down, and who I am watching to grow into a beautiful young lady.

My in-laws- they have been way too kind, thoughtful and supportive as my husband and I moved back to Vancouver from being international. We couldn't have done this so smoothly without their love and support.

My husband for supporting & encouraging me to leave behind a career I was miserable in. For letting me have this time to rediscover myself, even though its the worst time to do this - financially speaking. Also my parents for helping me with househould projects like clearing out an entire basement full of the previous owners' junk.

I'd like to thank my best friend, who stood by waiting and available when I went through a really horrid self-centered phase. Even though I barely spoke to her for a year she had already forgiven me by the time I finally apologized, and our friendship is getting back on track.

I'd love to thank my sister for all of the years she put in to raise me and my siblings are our parents died! I'm watching her kids for her right now while she's in Costa Rica and it is helping me to see how much work she did for all of us when she was only 20.

My father for driving four hours out of his way to come and pick me up from college at night (when his vision is terrible) because I was sick. He is such a blessing and he loves nautical things, so the boat would be perfect. :)

i'd like to thank you, marta! thanks for all these fun giveaway chances, and always, thanks for such a wonderful blog!reading your blogs is one of my favorite parts of the day :)chickpeasandpeonies@gmail.com

My grandpa is in ICU right now with no idea of the world around him. He's beyond that now and we expect he'll pass any second. So whom I want to send a thank you card is to my grandma who is sitting by his side, holding the hand of the man she's been married to since she was fifteen years old and he twenty-five. My aunt says my grandma does not notice visitors as she just stares at him, waiting and watching.
